EA Insights Workforce Capacity Calculator
Measure volume against capacity across pillars of work.
How to read this: point values are a base model example, a starting visual rather than a fixed standard. Adjust the values over time as you see how the work actually plays out for your role.

Pick a base tier, then click whichever pillar buttons apply. Each one adds its points to the total.+ Add Executive
Base model example: VP = 4 pts, SVP = 8 pts, EVP+ = 12 pts. Travel: Domestic = 2, International = 4, Combination = 6. Finance Complexity: Low = 2, Med = 4, High = 6. Finance T&E Reports: 4 or fewer expense reports = 4, more than 4 = 6. Automation, People, and Operational Support: Low = 2, Med = 4, High = 6. This is a starting point to adapt. As AI and copilots absorb more coordination work, the right values here will shift too.
What this doesn't measure: this calculator does not factor in travel undertaken by the EA themselves, nor other responsibility types such as analytics, reporting, or project leadership outside the listed pillars. Treat it as a starting visual for the workload that is captured here, not a complete picture of everything the role involves.
